LASER

Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation

Laser is the use of light energy to affect underlying tissues. It can influence bones, joints, muscles, tendons, lymph, circulation, and the nervous system by enhancing cellular metabolism and localized circulation. Laser therapy is a very beneficial tool to reduce inflammation and pain and to promote healing of wounds, injuries and/or surgery. It may also be useful in the stimulation of acupuncture or trigger points. Low level laser therapy has minimal heating effects and can therefore be use in acute injuries and at more stimulating settings for chronic injuries.

Examples of Indications for Laser:

Arthritic disorders Tendonitis Ligament Sprains Joint inflammation Swelling Pain Nerve Inflammation

Bursitis Muscle Spasms Scar Tissue Wound Healing Bruising Poor Circulation Skin Lesions (warts, eczema, psoriasis)
